COUNCIL OF VICE CHANCELLORS

Dear Colleagues:

Enclosed are the Academic Salary Scales for 2003-04, with
pay rates effective October 1, 2003.As
a result of the California State budget for 2003-04, the University did not
receive range adjustment funds so the academic salary scales will remain
unchanged from 2002-03.

The scales for the Professional Research Series, Fiscal Year
(Tables 15 and 16), continue to show salary ranges. All campuses must adjust
salaries to the maximum salary of the range for each step by October 1, 2004
for the Professional Research scale (Table 15), and by October 1, 2005 for the
Business/Management/Engineering Professional Research scale (Table 16).By these dates, the range will be collapsed into
a single rate.

In accordance with the agreement between the UC-AFT and the
University of California that went into effect July 10, 2003, the academic
salary scales for exclusively represented Lecturers and other Non-Senate
Instructional Unit members are enclosed (Tables 17, 18, 19, 36, 37A, and 37B
for the new Supervisor of Teacher Education – Fiscal Year scale).The Tables reflect the salary adjustments on
October 1, 2000, and the academic range adjustment on October 1, 2001.There was no academic range adjustment in
2002-03 and in 2003-04.The new salary
scale for the title Faculty Fellow Researcher (Table 27) is tied to the Unit 18
Lecturer scale.

The salary scale for House Staff (Table 23) is used for both
represented and non-represented house staff.

The salary scale for Librarians (Table 31, Scales 1 and 2)
is used both for represented and non-represented librarians. Campuses may
continue to transition librarians from Scale 1 to Scale 2 during this year
pursuant to the MOU.

New salary scales have been established for the Postdoctoral
Scholar titles (Table 26A) and the Project (e.g. Scientist) series (Tables 41
and 42).
